Hotel Transylvania Page #2

Synopsis: In 1895, Dracula builds a resort in Transylvania, hidden from the humans, to raise his beloved daughter Mavis in a safe environment. In the present, the place is the Hotel Transylvania, where monsters bring their families to vacation far from the frightening humans. Dracula invites his friends - Frankenstein and his wife Eunice; Wayne and Wanda, the werewolves; Griffin, the invisible man; Murray, the mummy; Bigfoot, among others - to celebrate the 118th birthday of Mavis. When the party is ready to start, the 21-year-old Jonathan is walking through the forest and stumbles upon the hotel. Dracula sees Jonathan and disguises him as a monster to hide Jonathan from the guests. But Mavis also sees Jonathan and Dracula forces him to pose as a monster. Soon Mavis believes that Jonathan is the "zing" of her life despite the advice of her father about humans.

What you gonna do? What you gonna say?

l got it covered. Please, relax.

Just do yourjob.

Good morning, Mavey Wavey!

Happy birthday, my little mouse!

Thank you, Dad.

l know it's my birthday.

l have so much fun planned.

But first, we go catch

some scorpions together,

just the two of us, yes, dead-ums?

Dad, please, let me speak.

There's something we have to talk about.

You want to go out into the world. You can.

l knew you were gonna say that.

But, Dad, you gave me your word,

and you know that l know that

a Dracula's word is sacred.

That our trust is the core of our...

Wait, what?

l said you can go.

You're just playing with me.

No, no, no, no.

You're old enough to drive a hearse now,

you're old enough to

make your own choices.

You can go.

Holy rabies! Holy rabies!

Whoa. Stop.

Wait a second, sweetfangs.

Where are you going?

Oh, well, l'm going to paradise,

and this is just some stuff

that l thought l would need.

-Paradise?

-Yeah, you know.

lt's that place out there

where you and Mom met.

Auntie Wanda says you two

were just like, Zing!

l don't know from "Zing."

Where did you find that card?

ln one of your drawers.

Why won't you ever tell me

about how you met?

lt's actually Hawaii.

Ha-what-what?

Look, honey, l know you're excited,

but everyone has gone to great lengths

to come see you on your birthday.

l know. They always do.

But aren't l getting a little old

for these parties?

l love them,

but l really want to see new things.

Maybe meet somebody my age.

Come on. No, no, don't do that.

Don't give me the pouty batface.

Okay, there is a human village

just a little ways past the cemetery.

You could go there and be back

in, like, 30 minutes or so.

lt should be plenty for your first time.

Well, it's not Ha-wee-wee, but l guess

it's still technically out there.

Okay, okay, okay!

Thanks for trusting me.

Of course, my little one.

l gave you my word.

Hey, honey!

-Look at this!

-Hey, guys.

You excited about tomorrow?

Not as excited as l am right now.

You're not gonna believe this,

but Dad is letting me

go out on my own to see a human village!

-What?

-No!

Excuse me. Drac!

Have you lost it?

Letting your own daughter out there

with those horrible humans

you always tell us about?

That's why you built this place.

They hate us. They're vicious.

And they're very loud!

Auntie Eunice, maybe they've changed.

l'm just gonna fly down

the street and see how it goes.

Okay, honey, be safe.

Bring warm clothes and a sword.

And look out for pitchforks.

Don't you let anyone

scoop your brains out, either.

Maybe stay in the shadows.

lt's more fun to just

observe from under a house.
